You can change the currency of any child on the free Tracker version of the app.

If your child has an active Rooster Card, then you can only use British Pounds.

How will the currency change affect my child’s account?

  1. All old transactions will remain in your child’s previous currency

  2. All new transactions will appear in your child’s new currency

  3. Children with Chores set up will have their chores period reset, a new choir period will start the day you change your currency.

Your child’s chores may take a few minutes to migrate to the new currency. You and your child will not be able to view or manage chores until the migration is complete.
